From my experience

1. It can trigger a custom script on an alert. So if you can make the script insert tickets into you ticketing system to automatically log a support call, anything is possible. Or are you looking to do it the other way round? It's in our inventory database, so it needs to be monitored? Yes, it can do that too. You can write a script to interrogate your inventory database, and populate bb-hosts. I have done both.
2. See below
3. See below
4. See below
5. Can't do patch management, but a script can trigger an alert if a system has not been patched in some time. Likewise, you can have a list somewhere of all patches that should be on a system, and have a script compare what is currently installed to what should be installed. Trigger alerts as appropriate.

Xymon can do some really spectacular things using scripts, and you are really only limited by your imagination, and ability to script.
